Magdy Abdel Ghani criticizes Kohler's choices in the Ceramica match

Magdy Abdel Ghani, the former Egyptian national team star, criticized the choices of Al-Ahly coach Marcel Kohler in the Ceramica Cleopatra match.

Al-Ahly defeated Ceramica 2-1 yesterday in the Egyptian Super Cup semi-final.

Abdul Ghani said on the program “O Evening Al-Anwar on MBC Misr: “Hiring Taher Mohamed Taher in the center forward position and keeping Wissam Abu Ali, the team’s top scorer, on the bench is very strange.”

And continue :"Ceramica performed more than wonderfully against Al-Ahly and was a fierce competitor for Al-Ahmar."

He continued: “The Ceramica players had great harmony among them despite the signing of 14 players during the current summer transfers, and everyone enjoyed the team’s performance against Al-Ahly.”

He added: "Percy Tau was out of service alongside Imam Ashour and Karim Nedved, in addition to Yahya Atiya Allah."

He added: “If Al-Ahly and Zamalek appear in next Thursday’s final with the same performance that the duo showed in the semi-finals, the match will end with penalty shootouts.”

He concluded: “I hope that Al-Ahly will play against Zamalek with a formation that includes Mustafa Schubert, Yahya Attia Allah, Yasser Ibrahim, Rami Rabiaa and Akram Tawfiq to compensate for the absence of Omar Kamal, with Maroun Attia present in the midfield next to Imam Ashour and Mohamed Magdy Afsha.” In position No. 10, the attack is led by Wissam Abu Ali, Percy Tau, and Hussein Al-Shahat.”
